Jeff Bezos went on TV to whine about Zohran Mamdani to stop demonizing billionaires. The very next day Mayor Mamdani responded by forcing Amazon to pay $9M in fines accrued by Amazon delivery trucks for illegally idling. This is what happens when we elect a mayor for the people—not the corporations

Now would be a perfect time to mention that the MAGA regime has spent the last few days especially the last 24 hours scrubbing all info and archives related to their Jan 6 insurrection. This would be called treason and yet another massive criminal cover up.

Jacobs: The War Powers Resolution of 1973 is very clear. After 60 days, the president is required to withdraw troops from hostilities unless Congress acts. Congress has not acted, and yet it is day 73 and my constituents are still in the region.

Say goodbye to Stephen Colbert and then say goodbye to CBS. A network that loses Colbert loses its cultural relevance. Period. Please repost if you agree! #StephenColbert #Colbert #CBS

“A bullet from four miles hit the rudder of a ship and the rudder of the ship fell into the ocean. It was a beautiful thing to see. It just fell in." From Trump's keynote address at the US Coast Guard's Commencement. 😵‍💫 www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-05...?

MeidasTouch: What do you make of this $1.776 billion fund— Gavin Newsom: It’s a criminal enterprise. It’s not just corruption, it’s not just graft, it’s a full-on criminal enterprise and it needs to be shut down.

Minnesota has just become the first state to ban prediction markets. Gov. Tim Walz has signed a bill that makes operating or advertising prediction markets a felony. This sets a major precedent for those seeking to regulate or ban Polymarket, Kalshi, and other sites.

Todd Blanche lied under oath to congress when he claimed he'd met with the Epstein survivors and their attorneys. He has not, despite months of repeated attempts on their part. It's not the only time he's lied under oath about something related to the Epstein files. newrepublic.com/post/210613/...

This security guard died protecting children at the Islamic Center of San Diego. If you can help support his family, it would go a long way. www.launchgood.com/v4/campaign/...

BREAKING: Alexander Vindman is LEADING against Republican incumbent Ashley Moody in Florida. If Democrats can win in Florida, they'll take back the House AND the Senate in November. This is amazing.

Source after source told 60 Minutes they fear today’s insider trading scandal about military secrets is tomorrow’s national security scandal. If market-watchers can spot irregular trades, surely enemies can, too. And they’ll make their war plans accordingly. cbsn.ws/4uSxuCf

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt was booed throughout this commencement speech at the University of Arizona for his praise of AI. This comes just a week after another commencement speaker who mentioned AI was booed at a school in Florida. Read more: www.404media.co/ucf-ai-comme...

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

Groceries 🆙 Insurance 🆙 Housing 🆙 Utility bills 🆙 Chaos. Tariffs. Trade fights. Massive deficits & debt. Expensive extra judicial murders, war. A billion for the ballroom. Working folks pay the bills, filling the coffers of magagop cronies. #WecantAffordTrump #dv1 #usDemocracy #v4v

And she uses the past exonerative tone to deflect accountability: “if mistakes were made, they will be addressed, they will be remedied, and we will move forward honestly and responsibly” That's $200,000+ in stolen public money. www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-05...?

Pope:”Reading nourishes the mind, helps cultivate a conscious and well-formed critical sense, guards against fundamentalisms and ideological shortcuts.” Reading is “an antidote to closed-mindedness which manifests in rigid attitudes and reductive views of reality.” www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news...

Turns out, schools are way cheaper than ballrooms...

Always worth remembering: ChatGPT isn't a tool, it isn't a companion. It's a product -- and everything you type in that box is data you are sending to OpenAI.

All the car parks to the supermarkets and hyper markets in this area are done. Plus quite a few much smaller parking areas. All new agricultural buildings have solar panel roofs as well.

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

Epstein Survivor hearing happening in West Palm Beach now. We stand with survivors.

I won't stop putting up Epstein, pictures and survivors until Epstein files are released, unreacted. All of them.

Why is @ncte.org taking $$ from Google to guide responsible AI use? ➡️ Should Philip Morris guide responsible tobacco use? ➡️ Should Anheuser-Busch guide responsible alcohol use? ➡️ Should Meta guide responsible social media use? This is absurd.

GenAI has made me dread grading student essays. I just read 16 essays analyzing “A Raisin in the Sun” that sounded exactly the same but with different wording. The first one seemed great, then all the rest felt like Déjà vu. What are we even doing here?

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

This is the University of Central Florida. So many people really have no idea how much kids hate this shit.

There are some hard truths here, and every Democrat needs to watch this segment. African Americans are being targeted because we are the most consistent Democratic voting bloc. The GOP knows this. Every Democrat must start speaking with one voice about court reform. 🧵

LIFE RULES: Insulate your house with books to ward off evil Oppose the zombie AI apocalypse Never click on a link to the Daily Mail Use double the recommended amount of garlic Always stop to say hi to sheep And to horses too (but in a fake posh voice) I think that's more or less everything covered?

Not to be missed! @pbs.org airs Broadway’s “Suffs” tonight on Great Performances. Now let’s get them to film “Ragtime” at Lincoln Center and we’ll really have democracy in action. #TheaterSKY

Had convos w/ multiple people in the past 4 days who DID NOT KNOW that 1. AI doesn't "think" or know anything; it's a probability machine 2. It was created using massive amounts of work stolen from actual people including me 3. The environmental costs are astronomical Spread the word, every time!

One reason Republicans are banning books and classes on race is because reading even one book about Jim Crow or Reconstruction makes it clear that they are hoping to reinstate segregation.

The countdown is on, methinks.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention activated its Emergency Operations Centers and has classified the hantavirus outbreak as "Level 3," multiple sources told ABC News. Context: Level 1 is the highest. Level 3 is the lowest

Mainstream TV news has shifted from “inform the public” to “don’t offend power.” The worst part is the tone: everything is delivered like a calm weather report while the country is on fire. These past anchors understood that journalism is supposed to apply pressure. Not host a brunch panel.

There will be more to say - and this is far from over - but this is one giant step toward justice for our grantees at the National Endowment for the Humanities. #NEH staff have awaited this day for more than a year - for you, and for us. 🙏✊

Gov. Lamont just signed similar into law in CT! It's a start. #AbolishICE

It’s time for all blue states to eliminate all red House seats in their states with newly drawn maps in order to counter the illegal racist fraudulent gerrymandering attack from fascist MAGA republicans. They started this fight and democrats have to finish it or democracy is done.

REP. @votegloriaj.bsky.social : “This is not a special session, this is a white power rally, and a white power grab.” #JimCrow #Memphis

Your honest opinion: Will the victims EVER get justice for what's in the Epstein Files?

America is in a state of emergency! youtu.be/m7E9FItIaPk?...

Happy birthday to a wonderful humanitarian and environmentalist! Please take care of our planet in his honor. 🙏
